This project aims to create a surfaced walking route along the White Cliffs of Dover National Trust for environmental preservation and tourism sustainability. The deadline for tender submissions is September 16, 2022, and the contract period will span from November 10, 2022, to September 25, 2023. This tender falls under the main procurement category of works and follows an open procurement method. This tender opportunity presents a chance for businesses in the construction and engineering services sector to contribute to a project of ecological and historical significance. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would find this tender suitable for participation. By engaging in this procurement process, businesses can not only support the conservation efforts along the White Cliffs of Dover but also benefit from the long-term economic and social advantages of enhanced tourism infrastructure in the area. ## Notice Kent County Council are looking for a tenderer that can create a surfaced all year walking route along the White Cliffs of Dover National Trust. The route will not only increase numbers to the site but having a singular route that is easy to follow will mean the ecology of the site can remain safe and grow back to what it was before. The coastal path is a popular and heavily used route which stretches along the White Cliffs of Dover, used throughout the year by local walkers and visitors. As a result the surface has become significantly worn and damaged in places. The path traverses an area of ecological importance and historical significance, as well as being recognised for its landscape heritage. By carrying out sensitive repairs and improvements to the surface, it will maintain access across the cliffs which protects the ecology, allows safe an accessible passage and supports continued and longer term tourism, as well as sustainable economic, envionmental and social benefits. Furthermore, the improvements will facilitate and mitigate the expected increase in the number of people using the route, together with significantly reducing further damage to the landscape. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/74b9e33c-527e-464a-a249-081816c356f8 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 17 Aug 2022 | | Submission deadline | 16 Sep 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 10 Nov 2022 - 25 Sep 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £175,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Cancelled | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | KENT COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | MAIDSTONE | | Post town | Rochester | | Postcode | ME14 1XQ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ4 Kent | | ITL 3 | TLJ45 Mid Kent | | Local authority | Maidstone | | Electoral ward | Penenden Heath | | Westminster constituency | Maidstone and Malling | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work - 71000000 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ## Release History - 17 Aug 2022 at 15:46 - TenderCancellation - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/74b9e33c-527e-464a-a249-081816c356f8 - 17 Aug 2022 at 15:19 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/852f3381-0ebc-4be4-8ca4-d38a8fc42576 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/74b9e33c-527e-464a-a249-081816c356f8 17th August 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/852f3381-0ebc-4be4-8ca4-d38a8fc42576 17th August 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.kent.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
